On Saturday, September 14th, 2013, The General Assembly of the National Coalition of Syrian Revolution and Opposition Forces elected Dr. Ahmad Tomeh to form the Syrian Interim Government.

Long live Syria and its people, free and with honor.
Preserving independence and national sovereignty and maintaining the Syrian people's unity within the same Syrian soil is one of the critical pillars of the Syrian Coalition. The Coalition aims to overthrow the Assad regime along with all its symbols and pillars. It also aims to dismantle its security apparatus and hold accountable those involved in crimes against Syrians. In addition, it seeks to achieve a transition to a pluralistic, democratic and civil Syria.
